President Harry S. Truman signed United States Executive Order 9835, sometimes known as the "Loyalty Order", on March 21, 1947. The order established the first general loyalty program in the United States, designed to root out communist influence in the U.S. federal government. Truman aimed to rally public opinion behind his Cold War policies with investigations conducted under its authority. He also hoped to quiet right-wing critics who accused Democrats of being soft on communism. At the same time, he advised the Loyalty Review Board to limit the role of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to avoid a witch hunt. The program investigated over 3 million government employees, just over 300 of whom were dismissed as security risks.

  • Mis en place par Harry Truman en 1947, le programme de loyauté des employés fédéraux américains est un programme consistant à enquêter sur les employés fédéraux dans le but d'identifier et d'écarter ceux dont les sympathies communistes et de façon plus générale les opinions seraient de nature à porter atteinte à leur loyauté vis-à-vis du gouvernement américain.
